JUMP IN THE WATER NOTHING ELSE WILL DO
ILLUSIONS OF LOVE
(S. Moos)
It’s a world of wonder now
Everyone is getting fooled somehow
Everyday we scrape and we bow
To an illusion of love
It’s as plain as the morning star
I can see you for what you are
I’m up too close and I’m back too far
From my illusion of love
I’m talking ’bout illusions of love
Talking ’bout illusions of love
Sometimes it’s confusing me my love
When I met you I had no shirt on my back
We had a lot of luggage and no place to unpack
All that we really owned was in fact
An illusion of love
We used to walk down the old north shore
We came to a spot where we couldn’t walk anymore
It’s hard to believe all that kissing was for
An illusion of love
Chorus: Illusions Of Love...
It’s done with mirrors and camouflage
Tenderness that is just a mirage
Go and tell your friends in your entourage
They are illusions of love
Chorus
(SAILIN' ON) MOONBEAMS
(S. Moos, K. Forsyth, W. Weaver)
When I was young I thought to fall in love
A wonderful thing to do
Until I met someone and fell in love
Who left me black and left me blue
But you can’t crawl over the garden wall
Without finding your downfall
But I’m sailing on moonbeams now, boys
Sailin’ on moonbeams now
The girls don’t mean a thing anyhow
I’m sailin’ on moonbeams now
When I was young I thought to take a drink
A wonderful thing to do
And when the bottle came I took a sip
In fact I took a few
And rum has been my nemesis
From the minute of our first kiss
Chorus: But I’m Sailin’...
I put the pistol up beside my head
And let the bullet fly
Our little story has come to an end
And really we must say goodbye
You can’t crawl over the garden wall
Without finding your downfall
Chorus
YOU MADE A VOW
(S. Moos, K. Forsyth, D. Starns, W. Weaver)
I went down to my darling’s house in the time of early winter
I was halfway out the door
I was halfway out the door, I was halfway out the door
I was halfway out, locks and bolts couldn’t stop me now
I went down to my darling’s house when I heard she’d gone
down the river,
And she’s halfway out from shore
She is halfway out from shore, she is halfway out from shore
She is halfway out, locks and bolts couldn't stop her now
I move on in and move on out, I see that girl start to shout
I see her face and see her, she’s got moonlight tangled in her hair
I call her up and she calls me down, she says I remind her of
another town
Of another town, of another frown, so I say honey, honey child
You made a vow, you made a vow, you made a vow
Locks and bolts shouldn’t stop you now
I went down to my darling’s house, time of early winter
And things were just like before
They were just like before, just like before
We are halfway out, locks and bolts couldn’t stop us now
Jump in the river, jump in it now, jump in the water
You made a vow, jump in the river, jump in it now
You made a promise, then the rains came down, rains came down
I thought I heard my captain say
The bell I ring you must obey
Take me to the junkyard now
Faster than the law allows
I can’t move anymore I can't roll anyhow
Better take me to the junkyard now
Whiskey made me pawn my clothes
Whiskey gave me my big red nose
Chorus: Take Me...
Whiskey killed my brother Tom (Whiskey Johnny)
I drink whiskey all day long (Whiskey for my lad)
Down the road come a junko partner
He’s as loaded as can be
He is knocked out, knocked out loaded
See him wobble all over the street
"Give me whiskey if I get thirsty, that’s a good drink if you’re dry,
Give me water if I’m dirty, but give me heroin, before I die”
Chorus
MUSTA HAD SOME REASON
(S. Moos)
I packed my bags and flew to Spain
And the plane took off in a warm red rain
I don’t know why I did that but
I musta had some reason that I forgot
I met a girl who said to me
We’re playing with love so casually
I don’t know why we do that but
We musta had some reason that we forgot
Must had some reason for the things we done
Though I keep on searching I can’t find one
When we got all tangled in a lover’s knot
Musta had some reason that we forgot
We met by luck and loved by chance
We parted through pure circumstance
I don’t know why it happened that way but
We musta had some reason that we forgot
Musta had some reason for the things we done
Though I keep on searching I can’t find one
Then things got so tangled and we felt so strangled
And we both got caught
Musta had some reason that we forgot
God made the world in seven days
And he trimmed the sky and he curled the waves
And I don’t know why he did that but
Musta had some reason that we forgot
1 packed my bags and flew from Spain
And the plane set down in a warm red rain
And I told myself as we hit ground
Musta lost some reason I thought I found
WHISKEY JOHNNY
(S. Moos, K. Forsyth, D. Starns, W. Weaver)
NICKELS
AND DIMES
(S. Moos, P. Anderson)
Remember back when we couldn't pay the rent
You didn’t care that the money was spent
We through a party-didn’t have a cent
When the landlord knocked we said
We’re having good times on nickels and dimes
That’s the way this love’s designed
I’m so glad that your love is mine
Having good times on nickels and dimes
You got nervous when the baby came
I said honey things are stilt the same
We’ll just split the love three ways
And if the bank complains
Chorus: We’re Having Good Times...
So if the wolf knocks on our door
And the stocks fall through the floor
Everything is gonna work out fine
Having good times on nickels and dimes
Chorus
NOTHING ELSE WILL DO
(S. Moos, F. Moos)
I was nine years old
When we moved uptown
Didn't know my soul
From hole in the ground
Till I switched on the radio
And brother Ray came sailin’ thru
He’s got the spirit I got to hear it
And nothing else will do
Sixteen years old
When my love came down
Didn’t know about love
From a hole in the ground
Till she said wake up angel
Got something to tell you
You got to heal it and I’ve got to feel it
What about the nights spent alone and
the friends that
You’ve known
A minute an hour a day
Till the time pass so slow
That before it you know
Your whole life has passed away
When I’m old and gray
And running short of breath
I’ll say goodbye living
Hello death
Then I’ll say, wake up angels
It’s brother Steve sailin’ thru
He wants to go up, up, up
And nothing else will do
CONSIDER THIS, SENORA
(S. Moos)
Ragged as a ghost
My steps have led me down a path by the shore
And with no hope at all
I come and call on you
I walked a lonely mile when the moon was low
So though you may be wary, please don’t climb the stairs
You try so not to smile when you tell me no
But look at us a moment before you climb the stairs
I’m neither rich nor handsome, and I am sure you planned some
Other kind of love affair
The breezes speak to you bow, they till us what to do
Do they not whisper in the air
Consider this Senora
Time is not our friend
Consider this Senora
On that we may depend
Consider this, Senora
You should never resist a sad guitar ». t
I play the song I know and soon I will be gone IN
I travelled in a mist to be where you a'-e
Consider this, Senora before we travel on
The breezes speak to me-they tell me what will be
Do they not whisper
Consider this, Senora
There’s a place I know down where the woodbines grow
I got a washboard, you got a tub
You and me, we should really rub rub rub
Consider this, Senora
When the moon comes sneakin’ behind a cloud
With no hope at all I come and call on you
SAINT THERESA
(S. Moos)
Have you come down from Avilla
To this cell where I am kept
Always where I do not need you
Kneeling where the beggar slept
|’ve been working on the Delta day and night I’ve towed the line
But every time I see your face I get in trouble
I have watched you from the window
Waiting just to take me in
Would you bite me like a serpent
To suck the sickness from my skin
Did you ever play a losing hand?
In a gin house poker game
I thought I heard the joker laugh
It was a relief while I was winning but I was richer when I
came
Chorus
I’ll sing you this verse and leave me alone
Don’t call me up on the heartbreak telephone
What do I care who you gone to bed with
Why don’t you get a rock to bust my head with
Chorus
I’ve been working on the Delta day and night I do just fine
But every time I see your face I get in trouble
Have mercy I’m sliding down the Delta St. Theresa doing just fine
But every time I see your face I get in trouble
I’ll throw stones in the church house
I’ll hurl curses at the sun
I’ll make a fire in the town
I'll laugh and sing in the church house
I will pray into the night until the come and tear your statue down
Do I haunt you like a phantom
Sister do I tear your heart
You did not invent misfortune, you just raised it to an art
I’ve been working on the Delta Day and night I’ve towed the line
But every time I see your face...
Have mercy I’m sliding down the Delta, Theresa doing just fine
But every time I see your face I get in trouble
ONE MORE ROLL OF THE DICE
(S. Moos)
NO LAUGHING MATTER
(S. Moos, J. Cregan)
Love is the lie you whispered in my ear
I didn’t try, but I could not help but overhear
Now I hear whispers in the street — you cheat
I am bewildered by deceit
For in your voice I have heard
The lines of love get beautifully blurred
And it’s no laughing matter, no laughing matter
You smile too easily
And it’s no laughing matter, no laughing matter to me
This is the life that I never thought I’d lead
But nothing with you was ever close to guaranteed
I always took you at your best-hard pressed
But as I watch you get undressed
You turn from me, as if to show
The time has come for letting me go
Chorus: And It’s No Laughing Matter...
Did you ever see a poor man dance?
It’s worse than living and hurts more than dying
Did you ever see a poor man dance?
They tend to give it all they got it’s the only thing that they have
Did you ever feel kind of wild and wooley
Your world’s on a string but where’s the pulley
Then you have trouble concentrating
The deal is down and your partner is waiting
One more roll of the dice
Deal me just one more hand
I'm free wide and single and going down the river
That’s all I understand
If I had known you cared this much
I’d found a way to let you know
You couldn’t live without me if you tried
I’m scared that when the lights come on
I’ll be left here all alone
Watching as the sun and moon collide
But now it’s dark, but I still see
Love’s gonna have the last laugh on me
